Your guide on connecting 2 pc's is very good, l wonder if you could answer some questions so l can set up a couple of computers;
l run winme and want to connect an xp comp as client, can l just use the winme wizard or is it best to do it manually, if so ,how? winme network places is not like xp.
As regards network cards, the client comp has one and my winme comp has one, l would just need another network card for my winme comp to connect it to the client, correct?
If the xp comp has it's IP address changed would it be restored automatically to it's original IP address if the comp was connected directly to the internet at some future date.
thanks
